my.gift

Ok, so for our anniversary this year, Josh says, "I was thinking that we could buy a new table and matching chairs!" Yay! I was so excited as I've been wanting one for a long time. As usual, it wasn't quite in the budget. So, we decided that we would purchase one for Christmas and use our Christmas money from our parents as well. I'm pretty sure that we're still over all of those budgets, but I'm not going to ask for any gifts for Valentine's Day or Flag Day this year....I think that'll do it. :)

So...drum roll please........

old chair.....

new chair.....

old table....

new table...

Guess where we bought it! Walmart...seriously. It is their new line called Canopy. I was a bit skeptical at first, but it is really nice quality. Even the husband is impressed! The best part is that there is a leaf in the center that folds right into the table. You don't even have to find a storage spot for it....love it. We are eventually going to purchase matching bar chairs for the counter, but that was *definitely* out of the budget. Maybe next Christmas :)!

So, I wish my old table and chairs well. Rumor has it that they will be relocating to a cabin to the south of us. They arrived free of charge from a former employer of mine, and we will pass along the blessings!

More Christmas posts to come!
